Orthoses are externally applied devices used to modify the structural and functional characteristics of the neuro-muscular and skeletal systems; prostheses are externally applied devices used to replace, wholly or in part, an absent or deficient body segment.; Included are, e.g., body-powered and externally powered external orthoses, prostheses, cosmetic prostheses and orthopaedic footwear.; Excluded are endo-prostheses, which are not part of this International Standard.
Orthoses that are designed to modify structural and functional characteristics of the neuro-muscular and the skeletal systems of the upper limbs; the devices may be custom fabricated, i.e. designed to meet the functional needs of an individual user, or prefabricated, i.e. designed to meet particular functional requirements; the prefabricated devices are adjustable, i.e. need adjustment for the individual user, or ready to use, i.e. need no adjustment for the individual user
Orthoses that encompass the whole or part of the hand and the whole or part of one or more fingers
Orthoses that encompass the wrist joint and the whole or part of the hand
Orthoses that encompass the wrist joint and the hand and one or more fingers
Orthoses that encompass the elbow and wrist joints and the whole or part of the hand
Orthoses that encompass the forearm with or without the elbow or wrist joints, i.e. with fracture treatment
Devices that encompass the upper arm with or without the shoulder or elbow joints, i.e. with treatment of fractures
Orthoses that encompass the shoulder, elbow and wrist joints and the whole or part of the hand
Orthotic joints used as components of upper limb orthoses to allow or control motion of the hand or finger joints
Orthotic joints used as components of upper limb orthoses to allow or control motion of the wrist joint
Orthotic joints used as components of upper limb orthoses to allow or control motion of the elbow joint
Orthotic joints used as components of upper limb orthoses to allow or control the motion of the shoulder joint
Interface components in direct contact with the user; they transmit the forces between the orthosis and the user which result from its function and may retain the orthosis in place. Included are, e.g. shells, pads, straps.
Structural components of orthoses connect the articulating and interface components and maintain the alignment of the orthosis. Included are, e.g. uprights, shells.
Cosmetic components are the means of providing shape, colour and texture to orthoses. Included are, e.g. fillers, covers, sleeves.
